ARTHUR CAPPER. Typed Letter signed: "Arthur Capper", 1p, 8x10½. On letterhead of Senate Committee on Claims, Arthur Capper, Chairman. Washington, D.C., 1932 June 30. To Mr. C.C. Hathaway, Washington, D.C. In full: "Replying to your letter of June 30 will say that I have heard very little talk among senators as to the probability of the Newberry case being brought before the Senate again. I understand from the newspapers that Col. Brookhart of Iowa pledged himself to make an effort to have the Newberry case reconsidered, if elected to the Senate. It is my understanding that the question can be raised at any time any senator introduces a resolution. It will require only a majority to declare the seat vacant. Very respectfully," Capper (1865-1951), a newspaper publisher and owner of two radio stations, was Republican Governor of Kansas (1915-1919) and U.S. Senator (1919-1949). In Newberry v. United States (1910), the Supreme Court had ruled that the federal Corrupt Practices Act of 1910 did not apply to state primary elections. Vertical fold crosses "hu" of signature. Fine condition.
